As an established leader in the audio space and America's #1 Smart TV company2, VIZIO is uniquely positioned to deliver on the needs of today's users, who consume as much audio and video content over the Internet as they do through conventional channels. The VIZIO 7" and 4.7" portable smart audio products feature superior audio quality that even discerning audiophiles can appreciate, complete with integrated deep bass modules for low frequency fidelity. From the office, to kitchen, to beach or backyard BBQ, the portability of VIZIO's portable smart audio line-up marries convenience with high performance audio quality in a unique, no-compromise mobile design.

Current wireless speakers or docks that solely rely on Bluetooth or a physical connection often interrupt the audio experience when incoming calls, e-mails, text messages or other notifications come through the connected device. With VIZIO portable smart audio, consumers can now discover an uninterrupted entertainment experience from a complete, standalone solution.

"After looking very closely at the audio space, VIZIO decided it needed to be disrupted with a combination of our leading audio and smart TV technologies," said Matt McRae, Chief Technology Officer, VIZIO. "Our new portable smart audio line-up reinvents the category by combining class-leading audio performance with a full touchscreen Android platform, delivering a first-class device capable of streaming music, playing games and watching video directly from the cloud or local storage."

The innovative VIZIO portable smart audio line-up will debut with two sizes, offering either a 7" or 4.7" touchscreen display for easy access to Android apps for streaming audio and video playback. Equipped with 802.11n, apps can be downloaded and accessed whenever the portable smart audio device is connected to Wi-Fi. When out of wireless range, users can also play content from their smartphone or tablet using Bluetooth, or utilize the portable smart audio's on-board memory for local playback of their favorite tunes. Alternatively, a USB port is available for additional storage expansion.

Designed with performance and convenience in mind, the innovative all-in-one design maximizes both volume and audio quality in a compact design, with the 7" display model featuring a sleek integrated handle for grab-and-go portability. A simple out-of-the-box set-up, similar to that of a smartphone or tablet, allows consumers to start enjoying content quickly and easily. The built-in, rechargeable lithium ion battery ensures the device can deliver hours of entertainment for a completely mobile and uninterrupted entertainment experience that frees the user to use their smartphone or tablet for other tasks.

More information on VIZIO's innovative smart audio device, including price and retail partners, will be released closer to product availability. For more information on VIZIO's complete product line-up, visit VIZIO.com/CES.
